Paralegal Fees
May 02, 2008
It shouldn't be too much longer before we hear from the SCOTUS on Richlin Security Service v. Chertoff (US 06-1717) regarding the ability to recovery all of your paralegal billings when you win in a case where the prevailing party gets attorney's fees. The unresolved issue among the circuits is whether paralegal services can be recovered at the market rate, or just at the level of actual cost. The case was argued on March 19, 2008.
